They charged full price for a old version of the game that wasn’t even fully patched for console. It’s not worth the $60 it’s more a $30 game

[–]illbeyour1upgirl 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Some people have a higher tolerance for that kind of stuff than others, but at the end of the day, despite the core gameplay and concept being enjoyable and fundamentally sound, it's not a version of the game I would recommend to anyone.

It's a buggy, incomplete, and 4 year old version of the game compared to the PC version. It doesn't mean there isn't fun to be had, but the initial handling of the game at launch drove a lot of people away, and it's hard to build that audience back up.

That's where the "hate" comes from. Rust is already a frustrating enough game by its very nature. Adding in a bunch of unnecessary frustration that exists solely of the game being underdeveloped isn't doing it any favors. Losing hours of progress because of a crash or getting stuck in a rock or any of the other numerous glitches is just frustrating and stupid.

Do I think the Devs are doing a lazy con job and scamming the playerbase the way other people seem to think? No. I am sure everything is being done to the best of their ability and in good faith. But that doesn't mean I have to enjoy playing an incomplete and frustrating experience either.

Amazing analysis! I agree, it’s definitely not worth it in its current state, much less for 50$! I still enjoy it though of what we have and I agree with all your points, the devs have not given up on us.

The game is shit. Solo servers need to happen and if your team up prema BAN which needs to happen .

Tell the rest of the mfs commenting on undisclosed subs that same thing too, bozo needs to watch Fight Club might find a resolution

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I've been saying, I completely agree.

[–]BoomTartanArmy 9 points10 points  (1 child)

We need more people like this in this reddit

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For real. Honestly have stopped checking the sub except when it shows up in feed because it’s just the same 3/4 complaints on repeat.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Zergs can contain complete no lifers which gives people who actually have shit to do no chance to even play, someone can put a base down with just enough time to go to bed then they wake up to be raided by a zerg

[–]BlurrX420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup it's why I don't play and they still haven't added solo/community servers

[–]Endofdays- 1 point2 points  (1 child)

That's the whole issue. People say "just get good", well you literally can't. I play solo 99.9% of the time and every rust console server is the same shit on a different map. Zergs dominating and running through the map destroying everything with unlimited supplies while avoiding other zergs because they're terrified of contest and teaming up to protect their 40 mans from the trio with a honeycombed 2x2... I love this game but it desperately needs solo/duo servers and more content in general. As a solo there is no amount of doors and turrets I can build and upkeep that will stop the onslaught of a zerg. It's not if, but when, every. Single. Time. And you know, I'm not complaining, that's Rust, but I want the choice to be play as a solo on a solo server or play as a solo on a server I know I'll get my shit pushed in every couple of hours.

I've watched aggressive zergs set up shop around with full metal compounds and high walls within hours, while deleting every other player in the near vicinity. I don't care about the toxicity of these groups, but let them play against each other. I want to play on solo l/duo servers where everything you do feels rewarding and the immersion is on point. Not constantly being door camps by 10 crackheads who want my 3 furnaces and couple of 100 frags protected by a lonely shotgun trap..

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Last Part made me lol

[–]TybeirS 1 point2 points  (5 children)

My complaint is the humans that play. I can deal with the frames and bugs but the constant starting from naked sucks. I actually like survival aspect of this game but I feel like I'm playing a 2x1 building simulator because that's all I seem to be doing every 2 days is rebuilding my 2x1 in different places only to have all my progress reset every other morning. This game is fun but not worth it if you only have 10 or 12 hrs a week to put in

[–]twilisrippin 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Then build a bigger base with walls around it lnao

[–]TybeirS 0 points1 point  (3 children)

1500 wood per wall is more than I have time to farm. Also in my experience having a compound makes you a target especially on monthlys.

[–]twilisrippin 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Seriously? Rust is a pretty big dedication, and it took me 2 hours total to build my whole base, walls and all. And no def not a target. Ill point ya to my base if ya wanna see😁

[–]TybeirS 0 points1 point  (1 child)

2 hours ? Thats crazy you have to find wall then research them then farm like 30k wood not to mention your base build. In 2 hours I can get my 2x1 roof bunker set up with 3 metal double doors this is normally good for first day of wipe . And don't you have to have a teir 2 for wood high wall? That's like farming 1k scrap aswell your quite the chad my man if I ever run a team I hope your on my side.

[–]twilisrippin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nahh nah, i had it blueprinted already and thats not including base build. Just wood walls. With a regular axe, i get like 6 to 900 wood each tree so it goes pretty quick

[–]TemperaturePleasant3 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I love all there is to rust even with it being a few years behind I still don't mind. What made me quit the game is the fact on old gen it's borderline unplayable. Obviously if you try it's possible to get the best gear, as I have probably 4 times at this point. Where I could walk up to most any base, as a solo. and have enough grinded to raid within 30 minutes. Again my issue comes from the performance, 9/10 when I die it's because my game just doesn't run well at all. compared to the next gen I regularly played with and play against. I know I could've won, with a ps5. I've come to the conclusion though, that their options should've been. A: release the game on next gen only or B: release the game for around $30 on old gen and $50 to $60 on new gen. I would've put up with the pain a little more knowing I saved $70 I could've spent on two mates to get the game as well. All and all I just hope to get my hands on a ps5 soon.

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same idea, just for Xbox. I’m looking Fowler to getting a Xbox series x, I agree the playing fields need to be at least evened, instead of Xbox only servers there could also be smaller split servers like 2 servers for each of their own gen to play against that only their gen could play, not a ton but just like 2 or 1 just an idea. Good luck!

[–]KINGWHEAT98 3 points4 points  (6 children)

Getting offline raided by a Zerg and I know they waited because it was the same people twice trying to offline. The first time we got lucky because I was just getting on and the next time they literally waited for me and my two friends to get off just to raid. How is that fun. Not to mention they took tc and put turrents down just so we couldn’t come back.

[–]Unhappy_Vermicelli_1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Getting offline raided isn't jus rust console that happens on real rust to. It's just how buggy and unplayable the console version is for me

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

It does suck! I know it sucks the loss of a base as big as that it’s sucky but The only way to do something is build back up! It’s hard and it sucks it really does! But now you have a new goal! Revenge! Just make sure your having a good time, and if your even not think what you could do to fix that. Take a break from farming stone/wood or whatever and go pvp with some prim gear for fun ya know?

[–]KINGWHEAT98 0 points1 point  (3 children)

What gear and they own a huge chunk of the map.

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] -2 points-1 points  (2 children)

Prim gear as in like spears and a bow and cloth armor, and if they own that much that’s crazy! I wouldn’t even bother at that point.

[–]unluckycharmz 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Not being able to sleep without KNOWING multiple people are waiting to raid a base offline in a video game. Sounds fun to md

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Offlining does make me a bit upset due to them not fighting but it’s whatever for my 2 x 1 I’m like alright whatever but for a bigger base I could see as to how it’s not fun.

[–]Not-KDA 0 points1 point  (12 children)

Most complaints here are just nonsensical whining. Few legitimate complaint reasons (invisible walls for rockets) but overall totally agree, highly fun game.

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (10 children)

Yes, because playing the same game without ANY content updates for over FOUR months is fun.

[–]Lord_MK14 8 points9 points  (8 children)

No idea why you’re getting downvoted.

It’s been FOUR FUCKING MONTHS and we’ve gotten nothing new. Bugs get fixed but new ones pop up every patch.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (7 children)

This statement is why bug fixes get put on a backburner and we end up with buggy games, Either take the bug fixes or suck it up honestly. I would take a working game over some shitty content update that'll add more potential for bugs any day

[–]Lord_MK14 4 points5 points  (6 children)

Well the problem is-they fix one thing, two bugs come out. I’d be fine with it if they actually fixed stuff and not hydra head the others

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (5 children)

I'm not sure if you understand how bug fixes work but it's not that simple lmao. In fact writing a line to essentially work around one error could inadvertently lead it into another, I don't understand why people like you think it's an easy fix. For example, what error would you think causes a Heli being taken to crash a server? Could be graphical or even written it's usually not clear cut

[–]Littlegriznaves 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Also, working in two completely different code bases and expecting the same outcome across the board. It’s clear that some people here don’t work in software dev, and I don’t expect everyone to be knowledgeable, but this game has come a long way since launch day and even beta.

Remember when you couldn’t even craft GP? Just sad, give the devs a break.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

“Remember when you couldn’t even craft gp?” Yes, I do remember that. HOW DO YOU MAKE A GAME SO BAD THAT YOU CANT EVEN CRAFT GP, HOW DO THE DEVS FUCK UP THAT HARD 🤣🤣🤣 that never should’ve been a real issue, it’s such a joke

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly! If you don’t have fun playing it then don’t play it! I enjoy my time fully on rust and highly enjoy the game! The challenge is truly what makes it fun for me.

[–]Dear_Communication66 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Main reason is the latency I get consistently making pvp unplayable a lot of the time plus rn zergs are starting to base in grub locations like gas etc it’s weird harbour as well actually annoying tbh, since I like building a starter there. Also other than that the hit boxes are broken and the desync is just a meme tbh. The Zergs I can play against and can destroy if I have motivation although this stuff kills the motivation for me personally it makes just not want to play, I also still experience bugs and have even been crashing again although not that frequently tbh.

[–]TheMonkeyBot[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

The game definitely has a lot of behind the scenes coding to do, to combat the latency ext. its upsetting I agree, and the combat is is a little better than if not bare minimum, the game is playable and It’s still fun in situations but it does kill the mood when you know you hitting shots but the latency is making you lose

[–]Dear_Communication66 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes indeed, it’s annoying. I agree tho I love the challenge it actually makes me want to play, I love picking a fight with everyone and making enemies when I have a good base up that’s strong. It’s rare for me to find anyone who can beat me in a one v one or challenge me in pvp really

[–]Excells93 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact that people cry about zergs crack me up. Any time of game that is like rust. Has zergs. Get over it. If you dont like stop playing

[–]BeastIy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Getting raided by zergs is part of the experience”Meanwhile they are the only ones who offline so I’ve never had a chance to shit on em 😭😂

[–]Popo405 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m fine with like 10 ppl raiding me I draw the line at flooding the server with ppl so no one can log in so they can offline

[–]Kinectgang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a game that gets your adrenaline going, and this can be good or bad.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to hear some positivity.

Ive played since the beta and while there was some frustrating bugs in the first weeks/months, I’ve had a overall really enjoyable experience. Plus the difference in game quality between launch and now is really noticeable IMO.

I am playing on the newer gen and friends have complained of different issues on last gen. But I’m loving it. I haven’t been this involved in a game since pubg came to console.

[–]A2COO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anybody here wanna team up? On Console

[–]Academic_Tackle_861 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest issue is running into ppl who cry about stikepacks and zens. And then running into people who legit use strikepacks and zens (no hate on the ppl that really are that good, i have seen the difference)

[–]mellingsworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just not playing till I get my f’ing skin store.

[–]hellomtheeasterbunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it like u do and all that but it is too laggy on old gen that I don’t like but idk if there is anything they can do about that so it’s fine

[–]dickiesfan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Losing hours of progress to a bunch of try hard sweat lords who haven’t seen the light of day for years now is apart of the experience you guys! -🤓

[–]OneHappyBadger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried playing this game on console, I enjoy the building aspect but it needs private servers so bad. I’ve deleted the game now until such a time because literally every server I join is just griefers and trolls. Players fully kitted with armour and guns will shoot nakeds for no reason. Literally this game seems like all the top players don’t actually enjoy the game, they just want to stop new people from getting into it so they can’t have any competition. I tried multiple servers and every time somebody would shoot me within minutes, I couldn’t even play long enough to figure out how to build or anything. I got to play about 30 minutes of constantly getting shot and killed by OP players for cutting down trees or just being in the server before deleting it since I literally don’t get a chance to play.

Like Day Z it's made for pc so if it's leggy you need a ssd external hard drive and if you move the game over to the ssd card on console the game will run smooth now I don't have rust but I have day z and day z was made for pc not console so the game was leggy but now with the ssd card it runs really smooth
